Yesterday was a hectic day but very interesting with a city tour of Cusco with stops at the cathedral, a huge ceremonial place and a cave where we prepared for the afterlife. Our guide was a short woman with a great sense of humour and a deep knowledge. The catherederal was the biggest I've been in and so beautiful. We were not allowed to take pictures inside so I can't show you any pictures. The ceremonial ground was built with huge stones, some of them over 3 meters high, around two meters wide and
one meter thick, weighing over 100 tons. They've transported there many miles and they fit like a glove. It's like in Egypt, how the h**l did they do that? The cave was small and narrow but it's said if you touch the ceiling and the altar stone you'll have a good afterlife...I did touch both...

Today we've been at two amazing Inka cities or whats left if them. The Inkas were smart, they knew that all flertal land was in in the valleys so why built houses on the feral land? They built their cities higher up in the mountains. Hard for the workers to carry the crops up to the cities but smart...

Tomorrow we'll travel to Machu Pitchu. The visit to the town however will be on Sunday. I don't think I'll write anything tomorrow but look out here on Sunday night (for you that's Monday morning).

Efter själva rundresan ska jag nog vila upp mig i Vina Del Mar vid Chiles stilla havskust.
